Paso La Yegua Airport

No official reason has been published. As a small, private airstrip likely serving a ranch ('aeropista de rancho'), the most probable cause of closure is economic, such as the cessation of operations by the owner, sale of the property, or a general lack of need for private air access. There is no evidence of military conversion, a major accident forcing closure, or other public reasons.

The airport is confirmed to be closed and abandoned. Current satellite imagery shows the runway is in a severe state of disrepair, being heavily overgrown with scrub and grass, and showing signs of erosion. The site is not actively used for aviation or any other developed purpose. Faint vehicle tracks crossing the former runway indicate it may be used for ground access to the surrounding undeveloped land.

Paso La Yegua was a private airstrip with no record of public or commercial service. Its significance was purely local, serving a private ranch or agricultural operation in the rural municipality of Anáhuac, Nuevo León. Operations would have consisted of light general aviation aircraft (e.g., Cessna, Piper models) used for private transportation, agricultural activities like crop dusting, or general ranch management. It featured a single unpaved dirt/gravel runway approximately 1,100 meters (3,600 feet) in length, suitable for STOL (Short Takeoff and Landing) aircraft.

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening the airport. Given its private ownership, remote location, deteriorated condition, and the proximity of larger, fully-serviced public airports like Nuevo Laredo International Airport (MMNL), any prospect for reopening is considered extremely low to non-existent.
